Hyderabad Dum Biryani

We got the family meal for 6 people. Generous amount of biryani but it was a bit spicy for our liking although we asked for it to be mild. Garlic naan and chicken tandoori were absolutely delicious and we would definitely order them again. Butter chicken was also good but nothing special about it. We got the food to go as the seating is limited and not so great at the Mountain View location.

This Indian restaurant is very close to where I live and specializes in Telugu/Andhra-style cuisine from South India. One important thing to know before ordering — the food here is genuinely spicy, as authentic Andhra food tends to be, so be prepared if your spice tolerance is low. I ordered through Uber Eats and tried the fried chicken biryani and Apollo fish, and on another day I also ordered chicken lollipop. The chicken lollipop was quite different from what I’ve had at other Telugu restaurants — it leaned more toward Indo-Chinese style.

For our mains we got the chicken Tikka masala and the ulavacharu biryani. The flavors were fantastic! But there just wasn't enough chicken to justify getting it again. Also, they are definitely using a microwave for some of their food, you could hear the beeping and the microwave door opening and closing. The employee also asked us multiple times to leave a re

I tried shrimp biryani and chili shrimp, and both were so good! The medium spice level was just right for me because I like spicy food :) Their house mango lassi was one of the best I've had. The service was superb! She's sweet and attentive, checking in on us throughout the meal.

Amazing food and really enjoyed the service. Will definitely recommend if you’re looking for some great affordable Indian food! Very cooperative staff and really comfortable vibes. Had the best nalli ghost mutton biryani.
